Pôpa Black Edition Branco 2021

Grape Varieties: Mixture of Varieties

Soil: Granite

Age of the Vines: More than 20 years old

Tasting Notes: Cosmopolitan, to enjoy on any occasion: vibrant and persistent, with structure and memorable centre of mouth; clearly evidenced tannins and long finish. These are wines that stand up to traditional and contemporary gastronomy, as well as to long and memorable get-togethers among friends.

Vinification: Grapes received with total de-stemming and very gentle crushing, followed by pressing to separate the liquid from the masses. Cold decantation took place between 24 and 48 hours. Spontaneous alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel vats with temperature control and in French oak barrels.

Ageing: Ageing for 12 months on fine lees followed by of a clean passage more 9 months in stainless steel.

Gastronomy: Its freshness and good acidity add contact points between several textures. Delicate proteins, less juicy but with a sense of character, whether in fish or meat. Crunchy sensations, sauces from deglazing, as well as refined fine herbs and spices of a fresher, less pungent nature. A more open glass and a service with a temperature around 12/14ºC, could expose its implicit structure.
